What to do what to do what to do…?

When not knowing is knowing and it sucks to be you.

Ever been debilitated by knowledge? Whatever happened to “The truth will set you free”?

Not so says I.

Not so says I.

Perhaps if I say it a third time:

Not so says I and it’s only part of the message. In full, it should say “Expect chaos, confusion, swirling bits of informative debris forcing detours, u-turns, tumultuous brake slamming and more… before the truth can, and will set you free.” That’s more like it AND it’s more truthful.

What to do? What to do? What to do in the face of some ungodly like truth? No amount of deep thoughts and poignant wall-hangings can calm the storms of next steps when a transformation is in process. The truth is, there is nothing to do except get out of the way and let the shift happen.

Let go of the fight.
